Investigation Summary
On June 22, 2000, Employee #1 and a coworker had just finished transferring gasoline from one 5-gallon plastic soap container to another. A coworker intentionally ignited a small puddle of gasoline in an adjacent open area, not realizing it would follow the path of vapor and spread. The fire spread rapidly along the ground and ignited a full can of gas, creating a larger blaze. Employee #1 tried to extinguish the gasoline fire with a water hose, but the water spread the flames. His clothing caught on fire and he suffered third-degree burns to his legs. The containers Employee #1 and the coworker were using were not approved for carrying gasoline. Neither Employee #1 nor the coworker had been properly trained in the actions of flammable liquids and vapors, or in proper fire extinguishing methods.
